Campus Recreation
Main Gym
Reed Gym opened in 1951 as the largest venue in the state of Idaho. Reed Gym hosts the offices of Campus Recreation, Health and Nutrition Sciences, Wellness Center, Sports Science and Physical Education, Women's Volleyball and Tennis. The Main Gym is home court for volleyball, women's basketball, and a few men's basketball games. The addition of the Tennis Center in 1978 and Recreation Gym with Climbing Wall in 1998 has helped expand opportunities for student recreation. An addition that will include much expanded fitness areas is scheduled to open sometime in 2010. Idaho State University is committed to equal opportunities in education for all students, including those with documented disabilities.
